ATO on Thameslink
ATO (Automated Train Operation) on Thameslink
Three buttons sit on the driver's panel of Thameslink's Class 700 trains. After a brief stop in a new tunnel between Kings Cross and St Pancras, the driver of the 09:46 from Peterborough to Horsham presses the middle yellow button and the train starts to drive itself. The journey was the first on the UK's mainline rail network to use an automated driving mode and sets the scene for thousands of partly automated journeys in 2019. https://www.wired.co.uk/article/tham...tfl-city-govia I note: The new tunnel is between Finsbury Park and St Pancras, not between Kings Cross and St Pancras |
